Bad City: A Conversation with the Author

Please join the UNC Office of Ethics & Policy for a conversation with the Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Paul Pringle about his new book, Bad City, which details his investigation of shocking misconduct by a former dean at the University of Southern California medical school. Pringle’s book is a study about complicity and abuses of power by individuals and institutions. The conversation hosts will talk with Pringle about his book and his insight about ethics in journalism, the perils of cronyism and the courage of everyday citizens who attempt to seek justice amid corrupt practices. Flyleaf Books in Chapel Hill has copies of Bad City available for 10% off, leading up to the event.
